I've never had a problem with genetic modification, obviously there is positive modification(breeding plants that contain higher omega 3's, more vitamins-minerals etc) and Negative modification(breeding plants that withstand toxic pesticides allowing for increased use of said pesticides). I do agree with the point of the article that currently these companies are producing nutrient deplete, carb loaded food which increases our disease epidemics...and by extension increases pharmaceutical profits.

Poor people can educate themselves all they want about healthy food but that knowledge is going to do very little to help them afford healthier food.
